State Senator.

William A. Schultz is beaten.
Now that the smoke of the battle
has lifted and the heat of the
Campaign has subsidized we want
to ask Democrats everywhere
what they who neglectep to vote
for him have gained by his defeat.
Just name the amount your wealth
and satisfaction has been increased
by the result.
SPEAK of man as as you find
him. Destroy no mans reputation
by false accusation, for political or
other purposes. His name and re-
putation are as dear to him, to his
wife and children, and to his
posterity as yours; it may be all he
owns in this world. Touch it very
tenderly. Every man that kills
the reputation of another for any
purpose by false accusation, de-
serves, tn and will, in all propabili-
ty, suffer from the same cause, only
more. All men think all men
mortals but themselves, says the
old adage, but MI are mistaken.
So is it in life: one man cannot fol-
low II life of defamation with any
degree of certainty, that it will not
come home tn both him and his in
doubled quantity and force. We
talk glibly of giving the devil his
due, but too seldom care to do the
same for our friend or neighbor,
particularly If he he public officer

own.

The Elections.


The result of the election in Ohio
on Tuesday does not present an in
viting field for comment. 1t is not
of prime Importance. In relation
to national affairs it is q matter of
much less consequence than the
victory in New York, or even the
triumphs iu Maryland and Vir-
ginia. To carry Ohio the Demo-
Gratis mus,l,ave not only an efficient
but powerful organization, and
an incentive like that which stim-
ulated them to an almost success
full fight against the entire re-
sources Of II Republican Presiden-
tial campaign in 1884. What Ohio
did this year is not necessarily an
index of what may do when there
is more at stake.
The Democrats of this State
have made good fight, though
they were unable to approximate
the disintregation to be caused by
the labor movement; and we have
Democratic victories in Maryland
and Virginia which are momen-
tOus; but the Democratic achieve
mcnt in New York overshadows
every other feature Of current pol
itics. 1t shows that the majority
of .he people of the great state are
satisfied with the present manage
ment of their state and local af-
fairs, and not unhappy with Ma
tional administration, which in Il
large measure ows its existence to
them. 1t shows that New York is
still the pivotal State, and promis-
es more pronounced declaration
in favor of the Democratic candi-
date in 1888 than it gave in 1881.
1t clinches proposition, taught in
many elections, that when Il full
vote is out, and good Democrat is
at the head of the ticket, New
York is reliable for Il Democratic
majority in the presidential year.
Iluch of the underbrush in poll
ties was cleared away last Tues
day. The field is open for fair,
pitched battle. We know better
now how to estimate the labor vote
and other irregular forces in cam
paigns. The tremendous falling off
in the support of Henry George in
New York, and the failure of the
labor movement to half fulfill the
expectations of it's managers in.
this county and state, take an en-
barassing quantity out of the Pres
idential contest. The cause of the
workingmen is not lost, but it IS
not u success as an independent
political element, and the laborers'
redress must be at the hands of
the old parties.
There are always two great par
ties under our form of Government,
and an election for Chief Magi-
strate is sure to bring the most of
the people to consideration of the
real questions of Government and
the abiding issues of the times.
Third parties flourish in off years
and gains local victories OCCASION
ally, but Mt least once in years we
get down to bed rock ON public
questions. If the Labor vote or
Z, the Prohibition vote is disappoint-
ID now, what can we expect of it
next year, when the people will be
invited to lay aside local issues
and local contests and consider the
questions which affect all classes
IF the community alike?
The decks are cleared for action,
md New York, with its command
ing position in affairs, has given
The Democrats their cue for action,
and stimulated anew the courage

in the following manner with a
request to write a composition on
the subject of a physiological lecture
to which the school had just lis

As to Sullivan's science the best

the qualities of the sledge hammer
and the rapier combined.

I recollect dining once in the
saloon of Delmonico's and seeing
seated next me q party of three
palpably law Westerners, who had
come to view the town-a father
with a tanned face and a beard down
under his chin; a mother with Il
yellowish fur cap that reached below
her waist, and long earrings of gold
soroll-work, and a reticule; and
finally a son of about 10 or so, with
enormous front teeth, and his mouth
in a perpetual cape of awe. You
know the kind of rural persons l
mean. Well, they seemed in doubt
what they would take. l was din
ing with a little party that evening
l believe your Aunt Satterthwaite
give the dinner, by the bye, and We
fell into private giggles, ali of us,
over the absurd hesitancy of father,
mother and son. The waiter stood
listening with a resigned air for
their decision, and finally it came.
They ordered three pieces of mince
pie and three cups OF tea. Well,
that, after all, fairly represents the
conduct of the average American
citizen on English or Continental
soil. Some Americans do even a
great deal worse than that. Others
people of whom there are a few
thousands like you and me- must

A case of remarkable longevity is
that of Frank Hicks, oolored, resid
ing within ten miles of Mckinney,
over whose remarkable head one
hundred and seventeen Summers
have rolled. The evidence Of his age
is afforded by u bill of sale from a
slave-trader to L. H. WEIGH, dated
in 1850, and certifying that Hicks
was so years old. AS in the sale of a
slave, like that of a horse, the vendor
while he might have an object in
undertaking the age of his chsttel,

adding to his years, the proof that
Hicks has spent one hundred and
seventeen years in this vale of tears,
is conclusive. Hicks, though q
little bent, is in perfect health, not
looking a day over seventy, and Civ.

of a century, or to see 142 years.

out Of regard to his former slaves
old age and diligent service, allowed
him the free use of all the land he
can farm. By his present wife,
Hicks had fifteen children,
fourteen of whom are living, and
by his former wives he had many

But three dollars of the coinage of
1904 are known to be in existence.
Two are accounted for, and the
other one is missing. The value of
the missing coin, according to the
last numismatic circular, is $500. So
valuable a coin cannot remain long
out Of existence, and it is farming up
in several adjacent towns. One was
recently received here. but not
genuine. A stranger arrived in
town, put up at a leading hotel, and
after a few days visit, got hard up.
He had the missing dollar of 1904,
and was willing to part with it at a
sacrifice. A merchant gave him 500
for it, and then sent it to the Treas
ury Department at Washington.
The officials there discovered what
the purchaser hadp't-that the dollar
had been coined in 1901 and the date
altered. Cincinnati Enquirer.

Our paper is two days late this

lowing to an accident to our press.
When We started to run the edition
Wednesday night, as usual, one Of
our guy-ropes gave way, allowing
the forward gilderfuke to break as it
struck the iunker topper. This, of
course, as any one who knows about
a press will readily understand, left
the g~ang-plank with only a fiphap
to support it which also dropped
and broke off the wrapper chock.
This loosened the tlunking from
between the ramrod and the fibber-
snatcher, which also caused trouble.
The report that the delay was caused
by over-indulgenca in Intoxicating
slim ulants by %ourself is a tissue Of
falsehoods, the peeled appearance of
our left eye being caused by our go
ing into the hatohway OF the press
in u anxiety to start it and pulling
the coupling pin after the slap-bang
was broken, which caused the
